far DIS the bottom sentiment of the gen
tries is concerned there is not-and
never was-any hitch as to the equality
between the two countries as regards
the union entered into in 1914.
Since those days in Norway the
progress of constitutional development
on liberal scale has been advancing at
more. or less rapid rate. The titles
and privileges of nobility has been
abandoned, financial and monetary mat
tiers have been adjusted, after fiery
struggle the absolute veto has been
abolished, industries, art and naviga-
ton have grown into wOrld-renowned
prominence, and to-day the old Norway
enjoys parliamentard home rule equal
to and above the average European SyS-
TEN, and awaits but the preparatory
time necessary for the adoption of a
jury system, which, with the home
proof element, will give Justice q
better representation than ever OBJ
tanned in this country. And
what has not been brought to
light from Norwegian source through
this early awakening to freedoms call!
There was Henrik Wergeland, never to
be forgotten III his touching pOeticaI Ell
thuSiasm. There was Ole Bull, famous
all over the world for his unequaled
music. and still more famous in the
hearts of his country as a patriot. There
is to-day Bj0rnSon and IbSen and s5ver-
druSs as living witnesses to what even a
small nation in remote corner of the
world cau perform and call into world
h0nored existence. when the right path

in Ireland. The overwhelming German
influence brought into Denmark through
the royal OldenburgerS was even more
severely felt in the then tas colony to
Denmark annexed Norway and high
and low suffered by it. There was
hardly native born individual to be
found in office throughout the country.
Taxes and fees were levied without
consideration and collected without
mercy. All sorts of determinations
were INDUCED in by reckless set Of
foreign-born officeholderS, and there
was no chance for the natives to obtain
a just hearing to their grievances. And
then, when the German-bloOded rulers
had involved Denmark in such an
amount of trouble that it was seen fit to
abandon the supremacy over old Norway
and n0minally transfer it to Sweden
then it was that the long dOwntrodden
and and abused. but still dormaHtly re-
tanned spirit of the Vikings awokc and
asserted itself by declaring for indie
pendence on this day seventy-three
years ago. AS matters stood, this was a
grand display of pluck. 1t was looked
upon as mere Stubbornness even by
many Of the natives, but when once
adopted it was cherished and
fought for with undaunted hard
that at the time the only
country in Europe from which such a
step might expect any sympathy Or sup
port was France. And that country just
then unable to extend any assistance
anywhere, the Norwegian declaration
had to combat alone with the dispeasure
of all the allied European powers, and
even the major part of national senti-
ment i'll the surrounding larger coun-
representatives of the Norwegian people
voted in the spirit of their forefathers
and called out the peasantry in order to
back the declaration on the battle field.

high rank among our aver
age farming population, and our
extensive milling interests owe conSid-
cradle to them. AS Il whole, they are
law abiding citizens, and as well quail
fed to accept of and appreciate our in
situations as other foreigners who come
here. This is the way the GLOBE views
1t, and, in order to make this manifest,
to-day takes the greatest of pleas
ure in rendering its best greet
ing to our Norwegian born fell
low citizens in memory of
this day, the 18th of May, 1914, when
they settled down earnestly over there
and made themselves independent
when their chosen constitutional as
Sembly adopted home rule against ter
rible odds. In those days history shows
that the struggles for independence had
quite different opposition. Then there
was not much of support to figure on.
not even in the shape of sympathy. be-
cause ut that day such sympathy in
most all countries outside the
United States had to be concealed
from the authorities, and consequently
it was limited to minority the populace.
And the more honor to the few who
dared to brave all the odds and step up
and proclaim for liberty, ready to take
the consequences, severe though they
might turn out to be. Thence we say
hail TO the old rOckribbed home of the
VickingS-the home Of a Left Erickson.

army still excited with recent victories,
claiming the fulfiIlment of the transfer
